Alternate Endings and Deleted Scenes: Warp the show for fun and profit!

@YetAnotherBrony  
now I know why money isn’t brought up in the show very often… +~+

@DanielTepesKraus  

 
twilight sparkle: Spike, I did a little investigating and had Fluttershy talk with Owlicious, it turns out you only found it by accident as it was hidden away behind a secret door, where you proceeded to melt the lock and avoid a deadly trap that had the place you found it in was better maintained, would have dumped you into an abyss. Maybe the fact that it was hidden, locked away, and guarded by a deadly trap should have told you NOT TO MESS WITH IT?

@FrustrationInExcelsis  
spike: fine. i’m going on strike then!
 
twilight: on what?
 
spike: it’s this awesome thing human rarity told me about. if employees are upset they can refuse to do their job until they get what they want.
 
twilight: ah-huh. well, have fun with that, spike.
 
spike: so that means you sort all your books…
 
twilight: k.
 
spike: you do your own chores…
 
twilight: cleaning spell. ba-bam.
 
spike: and i no longer scratch your back.
 
twilight: …shit.
 
 
@SpacePaladin  
spike: don’t play that shit with me twilight! the book from when owl-whatever his name is showed up!

@DanielTepesKraus  

 
Twilight: “The last time I gave you any money, you bought a comic book that tried to kill us!”

@Scrounge  
spike: how is it my fault they sell clearly dangerous goods to children without so much as a warning?!
 
twilight: what are they supposed to do? put warnings on everything that’s dangerous or unhealthy?
 
spike: yes! twilight, that’s a great idea! let’s do that!
 
twilight: oh spike, you’re so silly! if they did that they wouldn’t sell as well!

Movie warning spoilers below:
 
||  
Hiding in a small unnoticed corner of Canterlot while the big massive invasion of the city is taking place
 
Trixie: Looks like the entire city has been captured. What are we going to do?
 
Starlight: The Princesses have been turned to stone and Twilight is nowhere to be seen. She must have been captured too. It’s up to us Trixie to save Equestria, again!
 
Trixie: So does that mean what I think it means?
 
Starlight: Yes it does. It’s time to bring the band back together!
 
Instantly teleports to Thorax’s Hive Throne Room
 
Thorax: Starlight! Trixie! What a pleasant surprise!
 
Several hundred Changeling guards have spears pointed under Starlight and Trixie’s chins.
 
Thorax: Guys chill, they’re good.
 
Guards leave
 
Starlight: Thorax! Canterlot has been invaded by evil Yeti creatures under the command of an evil pony called Tempest Shadow and her master the Storm King!
 
Thorax: So you want me and my changeling citizens to come in, form an army and to rescue all of Canterlot?
 
Starlight: What? No, we need you to abandon you place of rule and bring absolutely no one else with you while you come with us to find Discord then singlehandedly fight off an entire army of hostile enemies that completely outmatches us until some magic sky laser farts it way out and saves the day for us!
 
Thorax: You sure about that?
 
Starlight: Thorax, please. I think we have pretty effectively established that only small unprepared groups going it alone against horrible odds are way better than trained army soldiers. I mean just look at the Royal Guard.
 
Thorax: Good point, I’ll get my things and then we’ll go get Discord!
 
Trixie: I’ve been meaning to ask, how are we going to find Discord?
 
Starlight: Don’t you worry, I have a map from the Post Office. Apparently they can go everywhere in Equestria, neither sweat, nor rain, nor interdimensional paradoxes will slow them down!…Which makes it all the more of a plot hole as to why I turned into a sociopathic cult leader all because one friend of mine moved away.
 
Trixie: Stay focused, we’re warping the movie, not the season 5 finale. Anyways, lead the way!
 
After several hundred miles of walking
 
Trixe: Starlight I think we’re lost
 
Starlight: Darn it all! We’re going the wrong way!
 
Thorax: I knew we should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque
 
After several hundred more miles of walking and finally entering the chaos realm
 
Starlight Worn out from all the walking : Discord… Canterlot…trouble…Save day…Boy you’re place is far
 
Discord: Fluttershy in trouble? Oh who am I kidding, either is or isn’t and it’s not like I’m doing anything today.
 
Instantly pops the group right smack dab in the middle of Canterlot, which is just cleaning up from the massive party celebration at the end of the movie
 
Pinkie Pie: Starlight, Trixie, there you are! We were looking all over for you! You missed the party!
 
Trixie: Party? What party? Trixie likes a good party.
 
Pinkie Pie: The We Just Save Equestria party. We party for like a good five days! Mostly to help everypony get over the massive PTSD they were having after being enslaved so brutally.
 
Starlight: Wait, Equestria was saved? How?
 
Pinkie Pie: Well it’s a really long story but the short of it is that Me, Twilight and the rest of our friends went on an epic adventure through mystical and strange lands only to realize that the army we needed wasn’t the massive navy of a higgogryph empire, but instead the bonds of friendship we have between us and the ones we make along the way. Also a very well aimed cannon.
 
Starlight: Wait wait wait, you guys actually did something? That’s not how this is suppose to work! You guys either stand around in the background giving a line here or there and maybe get captured while I go about learning stuff about how important making friends is, or not being a sociopathic dicator, or not being a mind controller or something like that! I mean maybe there’s a subplot where I teach Twilight how wrong she is but it’s never not about me in some way! That’s how these stories work nowadays ever since I stole you plot relevant essence while I had you locked up in my brainwashing cabin
 
Pinkie Pie: Wait what?
 
Starlight Sweating : I mean I’m dissapoint I didn’t get any cake. You wouldn’t still happen to have some, would you?
 
Pinkie Pie: Of course I do. Pulls cake out of her hair Here you go. Oh by the way, Twilight has a new friend she wants you to meet. Something about more reasonable and understandable motivations or something like that.

@EotD  
Two thumbs up! I wish someone could turn this into a ‘sequel’ like The Lion King Part 1 1/2.
 
And I’d love to see how the meeting between Tempest, Starlight, and Trixie went. (Warning, spoilers!)
 
Trixie: So Trixie turned evil after being mocked, losing her home, and letting herself go mad with power after getting a cursed artifact. Yourself?
 
Tempest: Lost my horn and nearly my eye while protecting my rotten “friends” from an Ursa Minor.
 
Trixie: I hate those things. You’d think the Royal Guard would hunt them down as a public menace.
 
Tempest: Tell me about it. Anyway, after that, I ran away from home, learned how to fight, and decided to aid a barbarian warlord to conquer Equestria and steal the magic of the Princesses in exchange for fixing my horn when I didn’t even know if he could… Wow, that plan sounded a LOT better before I said it out loud. So, how about you?
 
Starlight: Oh, lost my friend as a filly, started a cult to steal cutie marks, and created and destroyed several alternate realities to get even with Princess Twilight. Hey, I think I saw you in one of them. You were an alicorn princess there, Boy, great thing my plan failed, huh?
 
Tempest: … B*tch, I will end you.

The Cutie Map - Part 2
 
Sugar Belle: “You can’t have a cutie mark, Starlight! Either we’re all equal, or none of us are!”
 
Starlight Glimmer: “DON’T YOU THINK I’VE TRIED?! Do you think I want this mark? I try to get rid of it, but without it, the magic I was removing it with stops working, and I can’t keep it from coming back!” *Starlight breaks down weeping.*
 
Twilight Sparkle: “…Are you gonna be okay?”
 
Starlight: *Sniffle.* _{“Buck you, Princess. J-just… Buck you.”}
 

 
Secrets and Pies
 
Rainbow Dash: “Hey, Clipper! How’s things?”
 
Soarin’: “Hmph.”
 
Dash: “Um… Soarin’? Everything okay?”
 
Soarin’: “I’m not talking to you.”
 
Dash: “What? Why? Since when?”
 
Soarin’: “You know what you did.”
 
Dash: “…You’ve been talking to Pinkie, haven’t you?”
 
@Ardashir  
Meanwhile:
 
Sunset: I have this weird feeling like there’s somewhere I should be right now.
 
Sci-Twi: Me too!
 
Sunset: …We’re probably just imagining things.
 
Sci-Twi: I guess. Crazy coincidence, though.
 
Back in Equestria:
 
Sweetie Belle: “So a physically-strong unicorn scares the horseapples out of everypony…”
 
Scootaloo: “…And a disabled pony can pretty much get away with murder…”
 
Apple Bloom: “Please be joking.”

@Scrounge
 

 
Honestly, I sympathize with Soarin’ here. That beautiful, plump, luscious pie… and she just tossed it in the trash! How thoughtlessly wasteful can you be? I get not liking pies, sure, but couldn’t she have just found someone else to give it to? Instead… she just… without a second thought…
 
I… I need a minute.

I have an idea about what this show should have been after the events of season 3, but it requires to write a lot of this. So, to make it easier, I would make some drawings about it.
 
That being said, I have one clear idea: No Starlight. The show was about Twilight Sparkle and her five friends.

@Ring Team  

 
I presume that means no more CMC (or Spike) episodes? They’re not the Mane 6 either. :P
 
 
@FrustrationInExcelsis  
Since Rainbow didn’t just throw away any of the other pies, I feel safe writing that one off as “the writers needed something that they could have Pinkie react to.”

Magic Duel
 
Trixie: “What’s the matter, Twilight Sparkle? Not enjoying your exile?”
 
Twilight: “You’re an idiot.”
 
Trixie: “Excuse Trixie?!”
 
Twilight: “Did you think I wouldn’t find out what you’re wearing? That’s the Alicorn Amulet! What were you thinking?”
 
Trixie: “I was thinking of the look on your face when you saw I was stronger than you!”
 
Twilight: “You mean when I thought you were stronger than me. Face it, Trixie, if you weren’t a fraud before, you are now.”
 
Trixie: “You doubt Trixie’s power?!”
 
Twilight: “Why shouldn’t I? You obviously do, or you wouldn’t have gone looking for that Amulet. You think I embarrassed you? See how you feel after playing second fiddle to a piece of jewelry!”
 
Trixie: “I don’t have to listen to this! I already proved I’m stronger than you!”
 
Twilight: “No. You proved the Amulet is stronger than me. We both know you could never beat me on your own. If you though you could, you’d have never put that thing on!”
 
The dome over Ponyville SHATTERS, its pieces disintegrating into smoke before they hit the ground.
 
Trixie: “Is that a challenge, Twilight Sparkle?!”
 
Twilight: “Let’s settle this mare-to-mare. Show us what you’re really made of… if there’s anything left of you under that Amulet.”
 
Trixie: “That’s IT!”
 
Trixie rips off the Amulet and tosses it aside.
 
Trixie: “You’ll rue the day you crossed the Great and Powerful Trixie! Trixie will BURY you! Trixie will use your hooves as doorstops! Trixie will introduce you to a world of pain the likes of which you never…. never…”
 
Trixie wobbles dizzily
 
Trixie: “Trixie will…. T-Trixie thinks she’ll just lie down until her head isn’t so spinny and the ground stops making her seasick…”
 
Twilight puts the Amulet into a locked box, then trots over to Trixie, who is laying on the ground with a thousand-yard stare.
 
Twilight: “Sorry I had to get you riled up like that. You had to take the Amulet off yourself, so I had to make you want to. You gonna be okay?”
 
Trixie: “…Maybe….”
 
Twilight: “You wanna lay on my couch instead of the ground?”
 
Trixie: “…Trixie still hates you.”
 
Twilight: “Oh…”
 
Trixie: “But some peanut butter crackers and a couple aspirin might buy Trixie’s forgiveness.”
 
Trixie offers up a weak smile. Twilight nods softly.
 
Twilight: “Coming right up.”

I am very sad right now. ;⌒;

@Scrounge
 
This is sweet. I kinda almost wish this was how it played out in canon.

@DanielTepesKraus  
I like to think that Twi writes her every couple of weeks.

PRE A ROYAL PROBLEM  
BEHIND THE SCENES
 
celestia: luna, what is this strange white envelope?
 
luna: THAT’S A CASTING CALL, SISTER. YOU MUST FINALLY BE GETTING AN EPISODE!
 
celestia: (squees)
 

 
celestia: i hate my agent, and i hate you, luna.
 
luna: GOOD. USE IT. I GOT NO ATTENTION UNTIL I BECAME A HATE-FILLED BITCH AND FOUGHT YOU FOR 33 SECONDS, SISTER.

Movie Magic (alternate ending)
 
Juniper: And I was mad at you for casting her as Daring Do! I mean, I have told you over and over again how badly I wanted to play Daring Do, and you just ignored me!  
Canter Zoom: I didn’t ignore you. Every time you mentioned wanting to be in the movie, I always answered you. You’re at least five years too young and like a foot too short. You have no experience, or interest, in acting, from what I can tell. I don’t even know why you want to do this so badly.  
Juniper: So I can be famous and well-liked.  
Chestnut: Oh, you poor, naive girl. (she steps out from behind a costume rack) I couldn’t help listening in on such an obvious ‘villain confession’ scene. (to Juniper) Kid, there’s a lot more to being an actress than fame. It takes years of training and more years on top of that of practical experience before you’re ready to star in a major movie like this. And before that, it takes a passion for the craft strong enough to drive you through all the work. You have to fall in love with acting.  
Canter: (to Juniper) And considering how you’ve never even gone to an audition that I know of, you clearly haven’t.  
Juniper: Yeah, but…I love the character so much. Who better to play Daring Do than her biggest fan?  
Rainbow: You? (scoff) please.  
Juniper: I thought my love for Daring would make it easy to play her, and once everyone saw how good I was at it, I’d get famous.  
Sunset: Loving something doesn’t make it easy to do. It just makes you more willing to go through the hard stuff for it.  
Canter: And if you have that willingness, I can try to find an acting coach for you.  
Juniper: R-really? Does this mean you’re not mad for…all the stuff I did?  
Canter: Oh no, I’m still mad. And disappointed. (Juniper looks remorseful) But not so mad that I won’t help you try to find your path and your passion. (hug)  
(Starlight’s visit to humanoid world is very uneventful)

That last line was a zinger!

Wonderbolts Academy  
_epilogue
 
Spitfire is out shopping
 
Lightning Dust: “Ma’am…”
 
Spitfire: “Lightning Dust? …Wanna explain why you’re stalking me in the grocery store?”
 
Lightning Dust: “We need to talk, ma’am. And since I clearly can’t step into your office…”
 
Spitfire: “Get to the point.”
 
Lightning Dust: “Permission to speak freely, ma’am?”
 
Spitfire: “Do what you want. I stopped being your babysitter when we threw you off base.”
 
Lightning Dust: “That’s what I’m here to talk about. This wasn’t fair, and I’d like the pony who took my legs out from under me to at least admit she was part of the problem.”
 
Spitfire: “So you’re mad at Dash. How’s this my business?”
 
Lightning Dust: “I’m not mad at Rainbow Dash, ma’am. This is between me and you.”
 
Spitfire: “What? How the hay am I responsible for your mistakes?!”
 
Lightning Dust: “With all due respect, ma’am, I was just doing things the way you taught me.”
 
Spitfire: “Funny, I don’t remember ordering an attack on any passing air traffic.”
 
Lightning Dust: “Oh, please. I did it because you wanted it. Every time I left the other cadets in the dust, you’d show up to be so freakin’ impressed about how fast I went! Every time I was, and I quote, ‘reckless’, you were right there to kiss my flank for ‘taking risks’ and ‘pushing myself’! I did everything you asked, and you tossed me out like trash for it.”
 
Spitfire: “Go home, Dust.”
 
Lightning Dust: “I want something first…”
 
Spitfire: “Your spot’s already gone.”
 
Lightning Dust: “I don’t want another shot, Captain. I just want the truth. One question, no lies: Why’d you drop me so fast?”
 
Spitfire: “You know why.”
 
Lightning Dust: “That’s not what I meant. Just tell me… Did you really think there was something wrong with me you couldn’t fix, or were you just embarrassed and wanted to sweep me under the rug as quick as you could?”
 
Spitfire: “You’re out of line.”
 
Lightning Dust: “Fine. I get it. You ever wanna come clean, you got my mailing address.” Turns and starts walking away. “Unless you shredded my file already, I mean.” Flies away.
 
Spitfire: “…Sweet Celestia, can’t I buy lettuce in peace?”
 
@Ardashir
 
Starlight: What? No, no. You had wings, sure, but it didn’t fix your horn. That seems like it’d be adding insult to injury. I don’t think you took it well, but that might just be the piles of skulls talking.

equestria girls  
prologue
 
principal celestia: hello doctor.
 
counselor discord: mornin’ chief. i’m surprised to see you in my hacienda. why you haven’t had a psychological episode, or any episodes to speak of, for as long as i can remember!
 
principal celestia: not now, discord. we found this girl wandering around the halls aimlessly. perhaps you could speak with her?
 
counselor discord: an enrollment issue, boss? isn’t this a vice principal thing? or is she on another one of her 1000 day suspensions? hmmm? with or without pay this time?
 
principal celestia: *sighs* well, she’s… just talk to her.
 
counselor discord: hello young lady. had a little issue with the truant officer did we?
 
sunset shimmer: hardly! i’m a former student to princess celestia and the most powerful unicorn in all of equestria, and i will not bow to you otherworldly freaks! i will rule this world! starting with this school!
 
counselor discord: (snickers) she wishes she was a princess.
 
principal celestia: discord!
 
counselor discord: now, young lady. let me see if i’m understanding you. you are a magical prodigy, and a former student to royalty, and you’ve decided to leave your family, friends, connections, and abilities behind to use these qualifications to screw around with some teenagers in a magicless world where you have no home and no roots?
 
sunset shimmer: no! i mean… well… kind of… shut up!
 
counselor discord: i see the problem here. please, wait outside young lady.
 
principal celestia: is she… crazy?
 
counselor discord: if she’s lying she’s crazy. if she’s telling the truth she’s an idiot. either way, she can’t even seem to conquer fashion, let alone a school. i say just enroll her and see what happens.
 
principal celestia: enroll her?! we don’t even know who she is!
 
counselor discord: have you read our enrollment policy, princess? you don’t need to give a name. you don’t even need to be human. technically a dog could wander into the school and he’d officially be enrolled as a student here.
 
principal celestia: GOD you’re irritating! if i could have my way i’d have you stoned in the courtyard!
 
counselor discord: why my good lady, if you don’t think i’m stoned constantly just to deal with–
 
principal celestia: discord!
 
counselor discord:: joking, joking! just, tell the young lady to pick a classroom and take a seat, i’ll whip us up some popcorn in case things get good, and we just sit back and see what happens. remember, i was right about those three who claim to be 3000 year old fish exiled from another world.
 
principal celestia: *sighs* where do we get these students from?
 
counselor discord: equestria. didn’t you hear her?
 
principal celestia: DISCORD!!!
 
counselor discord: (winks to the audience)
 
principal celestia: fine. you know what, i don’t even care anymore. homeless girls and dogs from other worlds could come flooding in for all i care! i’m done!
 
counselor discord: even if they come in pairs?
 
principal celestia: ESPECIALLY if they come in pairs! (leaves)
 
counselor discord: works for me! (clicks phone off hold) you still there truant-officer sombra? yeah just toss that purple-haired girl in the school. … yep, the dog too. … yeah, a green dog doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. … superintendent tirek or superintendent chrysalis? … yeah, he does totally suck. … yeah, later pal!

@DanielTepesKraus  
:rofl: They need to do a scene like this for the show. They truly do.
